The local fire departments of Eversen and Beckedorf (Gemeinde Südheide), as well as the rescue service of the district of Celle, were also involved in the response. A rescue helicopter was utilised in the operation.
Unfortunately, one person involved in the accident died at the scene. The public is asked to refrain from speculation regarding the cause of the accident, as the Fire Department cannot provide any information about it.

The extinguishing work on the burning car was particularly challenging, as it was an electric vehicle. Due to the damaged batteries, more extensive extinguishing measures were required, with up to 3 C-pipes in use at the same time, sometimes under heavy breathing protection.
The information in this report was transmitted by the Volunteer Fire Department of the City of Bergen, via news aktuell. The Fire Department cannot provide any information about the cause of the accident at this time.
